The dark prince sat astride hi...

The dark prince sat astride his black steed, his sable cape flowing behind him. A golden circlet bound his blond locks, his handsome face was cold with the rage of battle, and... 'And his arm looked like an eggplant,' Clary muttered to herself in exasperation.

You may be the only guy my age...

You may be the only guy my age I've ever met who knows what bergamot is, much less that it's in Earl Grey tea.' 'Yes, well,' Jace said, with a supercilious look, 'I'm not like other guys. Besides,' he added, flipping a book off the shelf, 'at the Institute we have to take classes in basic medicinal uses for plants. It's required.' 'I figured all your classes were stuff like Slaughter 101 and Beheading for Beginners.' Jace flipped a page. 'Very funny, Fray.

Whenever I see interesting names, I jot them down. I've found them in lots of different places: on the news, in the phone book, even on hotel registry lists.

I like to listen to music that fits with what I'm writing. For each book, I've assembled a playlist, so readers can get a sense of what I was listening to while I was writing.

I'm not ritualistic about writing. I try to write as often as possible, which means that I have to be able to write in all kinds of situations, whether it's at home on my couch, out at a cafe, or traveling.

My ideas often come from strong mental images. When I'm observing some relatively ordinary thing, I'll think, 'What if....' and out of that brainstorming a story emerges.

Cassandra Clare 2147 quotes

My advice to young writers wou...

My advice to young writers would be to write every day, even if it is only a few words. Get yourself on the habit of writing and it will become a lifelong one. And find a place to write where you are physically comfortable. You can't concentrate if you aren't. Ernest Hemingway could only write standing up, and Truman Capote could only write lying down!

Cassandra Clare 2147 quotes

she glanced down and saw that a glove of blood covered her lower arm from the elbow to the wrist. The arm was throbbing, stiff, and painful. 'Is this when you start tearing strips off your T-shirt to bind up my wound?' she joked. She hated the sight of blood, especially her own. 'If you wanted me to rip my clothes off, you should have just asked.' He dug into his pocket and brought out his stele. 'It would have been a lot less painful.

I know about parabatai,Ђќ said Magnus, an angry, dark undercurrent to his voice. 'I've known parabatai so close they were almost the same person; do you know what happens, when one of them dies, to the one that's left Ђ'?

Don't take this the wrong way, but you smell like Magnus.

Clary, you're an artist, like ...

Clary, you're an artist, like your mother. That means you see the world in ways that other people don't. It's your gift, to see the beauty and the horror in ordinary things. It doesn't make you crazy Ђ' just different. There's nothing wrong with being different.

I know what you said! My mother would never have belonged to something like that. Some kind of-some kind of hate group.' 'It wasn't-,' Jace began, but Hodge cut him off. 'I doubt,' he said slowly, as if the words pained him, 'that she had much choice.' Clary stared. 'What are you talking about? Why wouldn't she have had a choice?' 'Because,' said Hodge, 'she was Valentine's wife.

You tried to drink the East River,'Magnus said, and Alec saw, as if for the first time, that Magnus's clothes were soaking wet too, sticking to his body like a dark second skin.

Cassandra Clare 2147 quotes

Stripping the protection wards...

Stripping the protection wards off the ship was bad enoughЂ'it's a strong, strong enchantment, demon-basedЂ'but when you fell, I had to put a fast spell on the truck so it wouldn't sink when I lost consciousness. And I will lose consciousness, Alec.

Cassandra Clare 2147 quotes

But that's what you're doing, ...

But that's what you're doing, isn't it? You're part of the fight just as much as the Shadowhunters on the shipЂ'and I know you can take some of my strength, I've heard of warlocks doing thatЂ'so I'm offering. Take it. It's yours.
